There are many vendors of ergonomic keyboards that are compatible with Apple hardware. Why do you wish for one to be produced by Apple?

Consistency of (beautiful) hardware design. Existing ergonomic keyboards are just plain ugly and it's a shame to pair them with Apple devices.

I still think Microsoft's "Natural Ergonomic" line looks rather nice: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/p/natural-ergonomic-...

The darkness makes it clash with Apple's aluminum color scheme though, so they're not ideal desk-buddies.

If this puppy had all of the same keys as apple keyboards, id be all over it

This one too

which keys are you looking for? I use a ms natural multimedia keyboard with my macbook and love it.

I use a ms natural keyboard and ms arc and both are great (arc has a mac feel to it)

Having a good default is the key to something being used.

I'm not at all convinced that "ergonomic keyboards" necessarily are that. But if an organization is serious about having ergonomic solution, they have to make it default, not option you can choose later ... 'cause the vast majority of people stick with the default option.
